We tattoo
Drawn for your body, executed over as many sessions as it needs.
Client reviews
“Trent mapped my whole sleeve before a single needle touched me. Three sessions in and it already reads perfectly from across the room.”
“I was nervous booking something this big with someone I found online. The consult and the deposit process made it feel completely professional.”
“Best line work I've had. He pushed back on my idea in the right places and the result is better than what I came in with.”
“Back piece over four sessions. Clean studio, on time every appointment, healed beautifully.”
“Worth the wait and every dollar. He treats it like a project, not an appointment.”
Investment
Half day sessions start at $800. Most large-scale projects run multiple sessions.
